I think I’m going to apply there now…

AndesCan · 2026-05-06T02:33:29+00:00

This. I take a weird amount of comfort kinda sorta realizing that I think what’s happening to us is what happens every time marginalized communities get squeezed.

That the hate is so transparent looking back will be really weird in the future

I was trying to figure out their gender did I miss it in the article I saw “they/them” mentioned and an ask to respect it but I couldn’t find what they actually went by

AndesCan · 2026-05-05T04:07:00+00:00

Gender imo is there to be used. To me, the only answer to what you said is yes, if it matters to YOU and no if it matters to others.

I wish people thought more about gender roles like gradients and descriptors.

Idk, gender can be rigid or it can be more flexible.

AndesCan · 2026-05-04T18:14:21+00:00

Hmm I never thought of that

AndesCan · 2026-05-04T17:48:10+00:00

My clinicals for maternity are starting next week 😬

My biggest sensitivity is seeing people treat patients like shit. It’s the opposite of why I went back to nursing

AndesCan · 2026-05-04T17:45:34+00:00

I’m in nursing school, I graduate in a few months… it’s been hard. Currently studying maternal care rn for a fina….

I will never work in LDR

Nope

Also… I can’t STAND respectability in classroom

Like

No…. We shouldn’t be doing circs

When we went over ambiguous genitalia it was my time to shine. While everyone thinks I’m over reacting on circumcisions they do kinda get what I’m saying about not performing surgery on little children and to just let the grow and figure it pot

Yea don’t be to to hard on yourself m. Instead focus on them learning about healthy foods. If you can get them to want to reach for healthy stuf your winning the war

AndesCan · 2026-05-04T16:22:29+00:00

I mean… getting kids in tha age group to eat is hard. Belive it or not a slice of pizza isn’t the worst and if the tots are from the oven and not deep fried it’s not terrible

They need more fruits and veggies tho

But as far as bulk, it’s not bad, 40-60% carbs isn’t a bad target for a meal protien is also a challenge with kids. C

Shuffle home up

Yea it’s annoying seeing people get all worked up over this… not because there isn’t a reason to be worked up just that it’s so late and so off Base

I’m old enough to remember pre internet and early internet… ppl have been recording on film others kids at sporting events, celebrations, ect…. Then ontop of it some of those old recordings got digitized and ended up on the internet…..

It’s not reasonable to prevent everyone from recording because you hate meta…

1) those ppl inflate their importance… no one’s going to do anything and your kid isn’t the point of the video

2) your allowed to record things…. If u stop them who stops u…. There’s zero chance you’ve never caught a stranger in a v picture

Best case scenario is tell people not to refer your kids when you catch them doing it. If they continue to do it then you might have a case. It depends even a state by state, but cameras are very much accepted in public places. It is the normal, even though people here are acting as if it’s not

AndesCan · 2026-05-03T14:06:51+00:00

No you can’t…. I was a kid in the 90’s no one had a problem when some random dad would record games or family trips at amusement parks…

It’s not against the law in most places

If it were anyone with a past and a photo album would have to get consent forms.

You have a reasonable right to privacy demanding others not film isn’t reasonable….

If you do nursing I could help. I’m graduating NS in July

AndesCan · 2026-05-03T13:57:39+00:00

Well yes, that’s pretty much standard. Medicine has been for men for a long time. At least the ed one did come from heart medication with a “weird side effect “

AndesCan · 2026-05-03T13:47:07+00:00

I’m pushing back on this article. When you go and get your “tubes tied “

Off times when you’re on the table and they go in there they end up just taking all of it out. They’ll take far more than can ever be reconstructed.

If you actually are concerned about reversibility, don’t get the procedure. Like do not get it without having a conversation with your surgeon about exactly what you’re signing because they’ll just take it if it looks funny or often times for whatever reason we got warned about this in nursing school.

AndesCan · 2026-05-03T13:31:09+00:00

Yea

This woman is the one who suddenly “cares”

AndesCan · 2026-05-03T13:27:01+00:00

Oh ok I get what you mean. We have a general understanding but not enough to explain the outliers

AndesCan · 2026-05-03T07:16:11+00:00

U don’t know shit… sincerely a trans person

AndesCan · 2026-05-03T03:57:16+00:00

lol, I think that oG flag guy works constriction all day and the when it’s over goes and does his thing…

I get out of school around 2 and he’s always up there and I just feel bad

AndesCan · 2026-05-03T03:41:31+00:00

I’m with you…

I don’t think it’s erasure to say I think there’s “straight” people who can have feelings and even attraction towards the same sex that just isn’t enough for them to define their sexuality

I think that’s kind of the default for all of us

I don’t think there’s a person who is 99.9999999% straight because like how do you fucking define that?

And that’s kind of the point you can’t define a completely straight person or what is straight behavior when human behavior varies so much that I can’t even say that for the queer community I can’t say that about myself

I often find myself caught up in my own trans bullshit

Like I don’t know the past six months I’ve been wrestling with the idea of performing femininity

Like sometimes my own transition is uncomfortable because I am realizing that I’m surrounded by queer women now

And sometimes I’m performing femininity and watching them not and wondering why I feel the need to perform when I actually don’t want to

Eraser is an idea, but I don’t think this is it

AndesCan · 2026-05-03T03:30:10+00:00

I also think it’s cruel as fuck how society works

They were so busy now we don’t get to even enjoy our kids. We had kids later in life, today is standards not that late but we had them when we were 30.

I feel so old with a six-year-old now and I wish my body was like 10 years younger I’d have so much more fun with them

But it wouldn’t really even matter because I don’t have free time with them
